grace says hi. this year she's 40 years old.

she doesn't like to be cranked up through low end gear, and her neck is a bit out of joint (put a plastic shum in, but in the wrong spot so it does nothing, neck tone pot is at either 10 or zero (as if i change it) and the bigsby/drill free mount is a bit loose but thats my fault. and it had to be jerry rigged a bit because i got the wrong size, but i actually like the little bit of the end, cuz it makes it comfortable to play.

had her appraised as a matsumoku too!

I actually like the look of the over-sized bigsby on there, as well. Looks classy.

My Univox Hi Flyer, perfectly 'reliced' by it's previous owner(s?). Prob end up selling it late this year, but it's such an awesome geet. Sadly, the only old old guitar I own.

I've got a couple modern reissues too; Epi '57 LP Jr., no pics and it's unstrung and nekkid right now, but it's a sweet guitar I'd like to put a Bare Knuckles Pig90 in. And a silverburst Epi '66 SG, tho that'll go on the block too.

Thanks! It's got just the perfect amount of scrunge and wear without having a crap fretboard or any real damage. Cuz I can never put that much wear on a guitar or bass, I'm so careful with the wee babies. :lol:

Made me LUV maple fretboards too. :love:

newest addition, and I have no idea what it is. Pretty certain it is 40 years old, but that's about it. Some no name beast that sounds lovely.


I imagine department stores were the fucking coolest places to be in the 60's, got damn.
